This course examines how children, families, schools, and communities collaborate with and influence one another. The course explores ecological theory to contextualize diversity and relationships among children, families, schools, and communities, linkages between family-school-community engagement and student achievement, and cultivation of culturally sustaining family and community collaboration. As you move through this course, I will challenge you to think about your own implicit, explicit, and confirmation biases about children and families. You will examine, closely, how funds of knowledge and cultural capital impact collaboration with schools and communities.
